Re: Plastic wood or carbon

plastic: cheap, strong, but heavy and not sutable for 3D
foam: cheap, light, (3Dable?)but break easy
wood: light, 3D ABLE, strong but not AS cheap
cbfiber: light strong, 3D able, but expensive

Re: Plastic wood or carbon

the walkera dragonfly uses a combonation of a metal spine, fiberglass body, and a plastic shell. these work great for 3D and are about the same weight as wooden blades. and for a good price too.
